(Seattle, WA) -- Seattle Mayor Ed Murray is resigning amid accusations of sex abuse. The Democrat's resignation comes after a fifth man, his cousin, accused him of molesting him decades ago. Murray released a statement yesterday denying the allegations but acknowledging that it's best for the city if he steps aside. Murray was previously accused of sexual abuse by four other men, including an Oregon man who says Murray raped him for five years while he was living in the Oregon foster care system.
